Regarding Beidou: I'm almost entirely certain that you should have pretty early access to a claymore billet from the anemo and geo seal stores. Buy it and make prototype archaic claymore. Outside of The Battle pass claymore, it's the best four-star option almost universally for all claymore users. Prioritize keeping that as leveled up and ascended as you can. It will likely be the biggest source of damage improvement. Also don't sleep on your artifacts, bring the feather up for a good source of ATK.

I would make sure and use my first claymore billet to provide Noelle Whiteblind, which is best in slot for her in a support role. But Boba should have access to 3 claymore prototypes - the one in the middle of the sword cemetary, the billet trove, and the souvenir shop. It's a good idea in general to make a prototype archaic because it's pretty universally useful as XXXX's First Big Boi Sword.

I kind of agree about Whiteblind being great for Noelle and it's what I did, but that kind of depends on how much somebody likes Noelle. The other crafted claymore is still good for Noelle starting out, since the only thing that matters is more damage all the time. And I'm not sure how possible it is for new accounts to get the billet trove, since it requires finishing Mondstadt, finishing the Diluc quest, getting to AR 32, finishing the Klee quest and then doing the archipelago. The character quests are short, but AR 32 might be rough maybe? I don't really know, I stayed at AR 25 forever and then jumped to AR 35 instantly after raising my world level. EDIT: Oh, wait, I looked it up again. Apparently they lowered the requirement for Klees quest for this patch and it only needs AR 21 right now, so yeah, it's doable.

Boba, depending on your interest in this type of gameplay, Beidou was the pull I got that first made me realize how deep, tactical, and sophisticated this could be as an action game and not just an RPG with a coat of action paint. If you want to really wreck shop and feel like an elite gamer badass, a fun setup is to put Beidou and Fischl on a team with a reliable Cryo and Pyro user. Use Fischl to draw a group's attention, toss out her bird so they all come running into Electro damage, swap to someone who hits them with Cryo once they're bunched up around you, which activates Superconduct. Apply Pyro (Yanfei is great for this, Xiangling is decent for it, Amber is bad but doable, poor Amber). Once everyone's got lowered Physical Damage resistance and is on fire, swap to Beidou and hold shield as you're about to get hit. She will react by doing a huge spinning Electro attack that will react to all the Pyro, setting off Overload. Everyone will explode and go flying away from you. If Beidou has decent Elemental Mastery, everything on the screen will die. You will feel extremely badass. Beidou will talk about missing the ocean and drink half a handle of rum.

Beidou + Fischl produce a crapton of energy too, which really benefits high burst cost characters like Xiangling and Yanfei.

Boba Pearl posted:I'm creating a google doc with all of my questions and tips everyone gave me so I don't ask the same question twice. One more thing about 4* and 5* pity - the are hard pities and soft pities. This isn't officially documented, but it's been extensively tested with videos of whales pulling hundreds of times. Hard pity are the numbers you're used to seeing - 10 for 4* and 90 (80 on Weapon Banner) for 5*. However, at the published 4* and 5* single pull rates, you cannot get to the overall pull rates. So what folks discovered is that at 70 pulls for a 5* and 8 pulls for a 4*, your success rate skyrockets. For 5* it's around 0.3% at pull 69 and 30% at pull 70 IIRC.

Soft Pity is at 75 pulls from last 5* for Character and Standard Banners. 65 pulls from last 5* for Weapon Banners. You're unlikely to make it past 80 pulls without a 5* on Character Banners and extremely unlikely to ever reach the Hard Pity at 90. malbogio fucked around with this message at 19:45 on Jun 17, 2021 |

Hexel posted:is this dodoco tales book any good? It's probably not a bad idea to max it out since it's "free" and also way easier to max out ore-wise, but unless they fundamentally change done things, probably only in specific niche situations. But the more characters that release, the more combinations and thus the more likelihood that a really good team winds up needing/using two of the same type of weapon and you'll be glad you have another book.

I heard it's roughly equal to Widsith, better than Solar Pearl on Yanfei. Low base atk with atk substat isnt ideal but the passive is just so good. I always level event weapons to 90 and always will!

Going off the spreadsheet, the best set for Eula is Pale Flame but I'm wondering if the success I'm having from just using Gladiator is just because of crit damage, because I'm seeing 10k crits off just her normal attack string right now. Not having a crdmg helmet is probably what's the current bottleneck though. I've gotta regrind artifacts for basically everyone anyway. I'm going to be forever haunted by that guy in here with the 1900 atk Xingqiu.

Hexel posted:is this dodoco tales book any good? It's a very good F2P option for Yanfei, Ning, and Klee. If you've already got a solar pearl on one of them, it might be a toss up which one is better in the long run. I've got a really good crit dmg hat on my Yanfei, so I think I'll keep solar on her and give Doco to Ning (even though the aesthetics tell me I should reverse this!)

If you're not using him yet... I dunno. Building Venti for EM is pretty viable so the extra damage from stringless might not be as important. Refinements for the stringless are pretty juicy for Fischl. The gacha gods have given me 8 stringless so my only excuse is that of course I am giving something called the Windbloom Ode to Venti. The min-max move is one stringless each if you were using both of them, I'd think.

The sets for Eula shouldn't make a huge difference overall. I assume you mean 4 Glad? 4 Glad gives 18% attack and 35% damage, 4 PF gives 18% attack and 50% damage when buff is up, but I think most people don't even bother with this over 2 PF 2 Bloodstained which is 50% damage and 0% attack. PF is going to have downtime unless you are very careful about how you use skill and you have constellations. Because the numbers on % increased damage are so high from phys cup already, and possibly weapon depending on which one you're using, the 50% inc phys damage extra from the phys sets is less impactful than it looks initially. That said, the big reason to not use 4 piece Glad is because a lot of Eula's damage comes from Burst, which Glad doesn't buff. For normal attacks, Glad vs 2 PF/2 BS should almost the same. Also unless your artifacts are pretty stacked with crit rate I feel like crit rate hat is usually going to be better than crit damage. Either way just use what gets you closer to the magic 1:2 ratio of CR/CD or just pick the one with the actual good substats.

Boba Pearl posted:I just want a good Pyro that isn't amber. Yanfei is great in that she just applies Pyro with every attack and has a good combat loop once you figure her out. Her downside, from what I've seen, is she's a spotlight hog. A lot of her kit is geared around keeping her on the field, and she also benefits from boosting stats other than Def and HP, meaning she's on the field a lot, but always in danger of getting fuckin creamed in 2 good hits. She's also very easy to interrupt, and her longer casting times for all her stuff means she's literally a potato if she is getting frequently interrupted. Electro-charged, for instance, completely disables everything about her. I just got Bennett and he seems great. I just need to build him up a bit to be competitive level wise. You get Xiangling for free and I just cannot get the hang of her. I feel like her Pyro application is scattershot by the nature of throwing out a minion that chooses where to barf flames somewhat randomly. The cooldown for her skill is longer than I'd like, and while her burst us cool, it takes forever to charge.

Barbara is an excellent crutch early game because she's one of the only characters that can consistently heal without needing to get into a fight. Give her the +hp artifacts that nobody else wants and one of these and she'll help recover from a lot of mistakes and boost your damage dealer in the process. Be aware that her E makes your characters continuously wet though, so don't use her in ice fights. On the other hand, her water aura goes great with Kaeya to keep enemies frozen.

That being said, keep in mind that Barbara will apply hydro to you at times (though as a plus this applies hydro to any enemy in close contact), so you get get a hydro-related reaction like getting frozen from cryo. Also if you are running out of HP, I would recommend trying to address that i.e. if you are getting damage from enemy hits, practice dodging. That being said, keep in mind that Barbara and Noelle heal differently. Noelle heals by hitting enemies via shield, while Barbara has an elemental skill that heals the current character and an element burst that heals the whole party.

Also, if nobody's mentioned it, ignore the mountain right now. It was added in a patch after the Mondstadt/Liyue main stories so it's considerably harder than those areas on average, you're supposed to come back to that later
